Answer to find out if you're eligible for R&D tax credits.
Do the activities performed relate to a new or improved business component’s function, performance, reliability, quality, or composition?
(Required)
Yes
No
For Example: A mid-sized packaging company develops a slightly modified cardboard box design to improve its stacking strength (reliability) for warehouse storage, involving minor adjustments to the corrugation pattern to reduce collapse under standard weight loads.
Is your company trying to discover information to eliminate uncertainty concerning the capability or method for developing or improving a business component?
(Required)
Yes
No
For Example: A furniture manufacturer investigates whether a cheaper wood adhesive can hold joints as effectively as the current one during assembly, testing bond strength to resolve doubts about its capability in standard production lines.
Do the activities performed constitute a process of experimentation?
(Required)
Yes
No
For Example: An auto parts supplier runs a series of bench tests on different lubricant formulations to find one that reduces friction in engine bearings more effectively, systematically comparing wear rates over simulated operating cycles.
Did your company engage the knowledge/expertise of skilled professionals during this research project?
(Required)
Yes
No
For Example: A plumbing supply company employs an in-house engineer to oversee tests on pipe fitting materials for better leak resistance, using their expertise to analyze failure points in standard prototypes.
Did your company conduct research, testing and analysis?
(Required)
Yes
No
For Example: A textile firm analyzes fabric samples under controlled humidity conditions to test dye absorption rates, conducting repeated measurements to ensure consistent color quality in bulk production.
